  3. i hate the way some of the choices (yes or no, valley or quarry, etc.) are so close to the exit to menu button. it doesn't even ask if you want to exit the game, it just does and i lost my game :(

  4. I accidentally exited too :(

  6. I kept trying but all i seemed to get was the ending where the boys mom is saying,"Cocsis,Wake up! we'll be late for the train to your grandmama!" Tell if another ending. Oh,And,Just so you know,I have spider phobia! So I will not be answer anon's question.....ANY TIME WHAT SO EVER! I'M OUTTA HERE!!!!!!!!

  7. i also got frustrated with the menu button and where it was situated but otherwise, i kinda liked it. it was a little strange but i like strange games. i'm not sure i quite got the point except, maybe, the point that you can never destroy your dreams and they will always be there or something pertaining to that. music kept me from clicking the exit button so, thumbs up for that.

  10. Hmmm, no matter what I try to do, I can only find 5 orbs. Interesting game but, until I find all 6 orbs, I feel like I am missing something. Thanks for sharing this one, Bart.

  11. Okay, so I looked up where top find the last orb and got an extended ending. I'm not really sure what it all means (whole game, not just different ending) but suppose there might be a follow up... not sure about that though. Maybe I'm just trying to hard to understand ;p

  12. Unlike Martha I do not have a fear of spiders, but I now have a fear of creepy guys coming out of the inky black shadows and shooting me. It is a rather specific fear, but what can you do?

  13. A COMLETE SPOILER:-1st orb: Go back to the tree after Costis's parents fade away
    2nd: Jump 3 times in front of the self portrait
    3rd: First go left in the woods, keep on lighting up the lamps until you reach the end of the path
    4th: When you reach the place where the bird flies away, you can find a cave near the rock on which it was sitting. Find it yourself!
    5th: Do not dig lilies first, dig for treasure!
    6th: Return the shovel to the pickaxe man and get the orb in return

    To finish the game
    DO NOT say okay when the man asks you to quit the game.
    DO NOT smash the mirror until you collect all the orbs

  14. i thought i had found all the orbs. thought it was weird that i didn't get any special ending, so guessed i hadn't. i saw that just after the credits it said i got 6/6 orbs but i closed the tab. oops. is there more after the credits?

  25. interesting game. i didn't like that there only seemed to be the one option to break the mirror. i couldn't find anything else to do or anyone else to talk to so i broke it. would've been nice to have some other obvious options. :/

  26. guys, stop posting spam comments. the comments section is for people who want to talk about the game or need help. spam is just annoying and childish.
